Assurances for the study
ALL data is confidential--no one but the research team at Tufts will see your survey (and they will first give each survey a number, create a participant list for next year's call-backs, then separate the name-sheet and response-sheets)
Youth names will not be associated with reports of the study--either general conclusions or specific questions
Youth may withdraw from the study at any time
The study is a survey of ideas and experiences, not a test
